ILRI

ILRI envisions… a world where all people have access to enough food and livelihood options to fulfil their potential.

ILRI’s mission is… to improve food and nutritional security and to reduce poverty in developing countries through research for efficient, safe and sustainable use of livestock—ensuring better lives through livestock.

ILRI’s three strategic objectives are:

with partners, to develop, test, adapt and promote science-based practices that—being sustainable and scalable—achieve better lives through livestock.
with partners,to provide compelling scientific evidence in ways that persuade decision-makers—from farms to boardrooms and parliaments—that smarter policies and bigger livestock investments can deliver significant socio-economic, health and environmental dividends to both poor nations and households.
with partners,to increase capacity among ILRI’s key stakeholders to make better use of livestock science and investments for better lives through livestock.
